Hy-Vee Health Exemplar Care also offers monthly health care memberships to employer groups and/or individuals and families. As members, patients get unlimited access to direct primary care and walk-in care services at Hy-Vee Health Exemplar Care. Members can also connect with their providers anytime via text, email or telehealth. In-person primary care appointments are available from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
In addition to improving health outcomes, Hy-Vee Health Exemplar Care membership is designed to lower medical expenses for both patients and employers by promoting proactive care without the financial burden of a copay or insurance claim for each visit. Additionally, members receive priority walk-in care, moving to the front of the line for an even faster experience. The membership can be layered with a major medical health plan or used independently.
“We’re excited to introduce a new health care experience to the Davenport community through Hy-Vee Health Exemplar Care,” said Dr. Daniel Fick, Hy-Vee’s SVP, chief medical officer and president of Hy-Vee Healthcare LLC. “Our providers are committed to delivering convenient, quality care at an affordable and transparent price that patients and employers can feel good about.”
